MyMagic eNewsletter #788
October 26, 2019
As many of you know from reading these newsletters, I am a big fan of ranging forces and multiple outs. I was finally able to get some of Blake Vogt’s new four-way-out envelope. I have spent years trying to come up with something that does this but found it impossible. He actually did it, and it is available now.
Number 4 Envelope:
It is an ingeniously constructed four-way-out envelope using an origami type fold that allows it to handle very cleanly and fairly. Depending on which way you start to open the envelope you can hand it to your spectator to remove the card or small object.
Watch & Buy: HERE.
Ike Copper/Silver:
This has been a very popular coin set that continually sells-out. I currently have eleven sets in stock. It comes with an Eisenhower Dollar, a copper plated Churchill coin the same size and a matching copper/silver coin. No instructions,
Get one: HERE.
Dean’s Coin Wallet:
During my pursuit of multiple out wallets, I came across this beautiful coin wallet by Dean Dill that was released in 2004. It is a double-sided wallet that is beautiful. It looks the same on both sides and was originally made to switch coins.
It also comes with an excellent routine by Michael Weber. These might be the end of them. Not sure if more will ever be made.
Get one: HERE.
While I was playing with the wallet I wondered. Are there any gaffed coin routines that end with similar coins, that a different gaffed coin set begins with? That way you perform one routine put the coins in the wallet, do a card trick, then remove the other coin set. Don’t know the answer to that. Do you?
